[Question/Request] Parameter names and default arguments empty for Loaded Modules

[OriolCS2]

Hello! I have a ".as" file thas has a class with this method:

string GetString(const string&in key, const string&in defaultValue = "") const

and when I load it and then I request its declaration I get this:

string GetString(const string&in, const string&in) const

I don't know if I'm missing something, it is not implemented or it is a bug. I was expecting to get the declaration as:

string GetString(const string&in key, const string&in defaultValue = "") const

Parameter names and default arguments are missing.

This works fine when requesting the declaration of a method that has been registered via c++ and not loaded as a module from a script.

PD: I need this because the static analizer code tool when programming is expecting the argument when it shouldn't.

This compiles fine, so there is no problem but it would be amazing to be able to get that metadata as well when compiling the code as a module and not registering via c++!

Thanks!

It should work the same for both registered and compiled functions.

Are you setting the parameter includeParamNames when calling GetDeclaration?

Yes, it is the same code but it returns without names and default arguments for the declarations that comes from a loaded module.

With "loaded module" are you referring to pre-compiled bytecode? If so was the pre-compiled bytecode saved without debug info?

Yes, a pre-compiled bytecode with the stripDebugInfo false.

Simple example:

Thanks for the confirmations. I'll investigate this.
